>< i fainted at school

i got up at 8 this morning. andy gave me a ride to school. i was heading for the 9:45 final for eastern asian art. when we went outside his car was all frosty. i got an empty cd case and started scraping the windows, all the sudden i felt very dizzy. i sat back in the car, i felt a little bit better. i arrived at the imu building around 9 and was ready to buy something for my breakfast. i knew i didn’t feel well so i wrote an email to see if any of my co-workers would like to take my shift for me. then i stood up and walked to the Union Pantry. all i wanted that time was some cold apple juice, unfortunately my head got so dizzy when i was taking my money from my wallet, i was having trouble breathing. then my head went black for a second, i fell on the ground and i threw up. it went really fast. i heard lots noise. lots people came and helped. i was very touched. a professor stayed with me the longest. she was so concerned about me altho it was the first time i ever met her. she took me to the bathroom, and she bought me a bottle of apple juice. then some other ppl called my art professor telling him i probably won’t be able to make it to the test. after i filled out an incident report, i found the professor who stayed with me was Alice Fulton. (Later i got an email from her asking me if I felt better.) She walked me upstair and let me sit in a couch and asked me if i wanted her to stay. i felt really bad wasting her so much time so i told her i was okay.
i stayed on the couch for an hour, i planned to take the test afterwards. so i walked to the art building and talked to my professor. he told me i could take a make up test any time i want. i really shouldn’t do it when i’m not feeling well.
by that time, i found out someone decided to take my shift at work, i could basically go home and rest. so i did. i freaked andy out when i called him and told him what happened tho.
nevertheless, i had a good rest. i watched “Big Daddy” when i got up. we had dinner and took a walk outside. i went to my old high school. it was fun showing andy around there. he went to a different high school in the city. but there were high school football games at my school which he went to. too bad i never met him earlier =P
tomorrow i will be at a review section for my computer science final. after that, i will go take my art make up test. now it’s time for sleep again =) yawn…..
